This motherboard supports the latest Intel® Sandy Bridge-E processors in the
LGA2011 package, with memory and PCI Express controllers integrated to support
4-channel (8 DIMM) DDR3 memory and 16 PCI Express 3.0 lanes. This provides great
graphics performance. Intel® Sandy Bridge-E processors are among the most
powerful and energy efficient CPUs in the world.

PCI Express® 3.0 (PCIe 3.0) is the latest PCI Express bus standard with
improved encoding schemes that provide twice the performance of current PCIe
2.0. Total bandwidth for a x16 link reaches a maximum of 32GB/s, double the
16GB/s of PCIe 2.0 (in x16 mode). As such, PCIe 3.0 provides users unprecedented
data speeds, combined with the convenience and seamless transition offered by
complete backward compatibility with PCIe 1.0 and PCIe 2.0 devices. PCIe 3.0
will become a must-have feature for users who wish to improve and optimize
graphic performance, as well as have the latest technology available to them.

SLI/CrossFire On-Demand

Why choose when you can have both?
SLI or CrossFireX? Fret no longer because with the ROG Rampage IV GENE, you’ll
be able to run both multi-GPU setups. The board features SLI/CrossFire on Demand
technology, supporting up to Quad-GPU SLI or Quad-GPU CrossFireX configuration.
Whichever path you take, you can be assured of jaw-dropping graphics at a level
previously unseen.
